Chapter 12by
Hyperamnesia?
Tianqiong has complicated personnel and a lot of gossip. As early as two years ago, when Song Qinglan was a special soldier who had not become a guardian, she heard someone say this at the guardian training camp. At that time, a certain exam was ranked, and a teacher with excellent professional knowledge in the training camp came second. In the class, the teacher teased the students: "Actually, I'm not a loser. The first place in Ji Yushi has hyperamnesia. Who can pass him?"
It was just a joke. It sounded like he was using exaggerated rhetoric to describe how good this person's memory was during the monsoon season.
In fact, Song Qinglan only took this as a description before.
But...is this a disease?
Being so close, the moisture on the roots of the eyelashes can be clearly seen during the monsoon rains.
His skin was cold white, and when he was angry, he didn't see the capillaries dilated and reddened, like a cold ice sculpture.
"My caudate nucleus and frontal lobe are abnormal, and I can store long-term memory uncontrollably. I remember what color socks I wore in the morning of my first day of elementary school, and I remember staying in bed on the first weekend after starting work. Did it rain that day? I also remember whether I lifted my left foot or my right foot first when I entered the bookstore."
Ji Yushi's eyes were clear and emotionless, like a narrator.
"As long as I have seen, heard, and felt, whether it is important or not, whether I need to write it down or not, I will remember it. There is no screening process. That is to say, I have no ability to forget."
Song Qinglan's brows stretched, and a little surprise appeared in her pupils: "..."
No ability to forget?
Ji Yushi said: "What you think is abnormal is the most common to me. So as long as I have experienced it, it makes no difference whether it has been experienced once or countless times. That is to say, like you, I only have It went through the process of a mission restart."
"So the reason you seem to know almost everything is because you remember it all?"
"That's right."
"anything?"
"Anything, you can test me."
It doesn't look like a lie when it rains.
Of course, Song Qinglan didn't know the other party well enough, and she didn't know if there was any connection between the other party's arrival and the problem with this mission, so she only asked, "Then why did you come to the bookstore?"
"I saw it in the drone screen." Ji Yushi seemed to think this question was an idiot. "Without the Internet, electronic devices are just decorations. In a strange place, if you want to quickly learn about its history and present, you can still Where are you going?"
Song Qinglan: "..."
Ji Yushi made a pun: "Song team, don't just think about the crushing force."
It fell into Song Qinglan's ears, and the tone was almost like saying "you should read more when you have time" and "don't rely on bullying people by force".
The guardian has a clear purpose in carrying out the task, pays attention to quickness, accuracy and ruthlessness. When encountering obstacles, the soldiers will block the water and cover the soil, and they will draw their swords and go up.
It was not the first time the two had confronted each other since they met, but it was the first time Song Qinglan had to admit that the other party was right. In this inexplicable world, you can't be fast and accurate, and being careful has become the shortcoming of the guardian. At present, the monsoon season happens to make up for this.
"But you're right on one point. My medicine is indeed used to clear my mind and refresh my mind." Ji Yushi poked Song Qinglan's shoulder with his finger, "Team Song, can you let me go?"
Only then did Song Qinglan realize how ambiguous the two of them looked.
This situation is fine on other people of the same sex, such as Li Chun. This posture usually means that Li Chun is only concerned about being lazy and fails a certain training and will be beaten. Putting it on Ji Yushi, who is half a head shorter than himself, with a slender body and big white eyes, is a bit unpleasant.
The point is, the whole sky knows this consultant Ji's sexual orientation: male.
Captain Song, who dared to press people casually because of his tall stature, was finally willing to turn aside and let the weak and delicate consultant Ji come out from the front of the bookshelf.
It's just that the face of that handsome face is a bit unsightly.
The small square pillbox was thrown out in a parabola just now.
With so many bookshelves and books, it's hard to find without seeing the specific direction. During the monsoon rain, walked around for a few times and couldn't find the medicine box.
At this moment, the teammates left and returned.
"Bang bang bang-"
Gunshots suddenly sounded outside the bookstore.
"Team Song!!" Zhou Mingxuan shouted, "Close the door, hurry!!"
The three people who rushed in were stained with corpse blood.
Twenty or thirty zombies rushed to the door, and saw the living people inside through the floor-to-ceiling glass windows of the bookstore. .
As soon as he was out of danger, Li Chun scolded: "Damn, all the food has been robbed, and it was very easy to find a supermarket with nothing in it, just a few cans of this or something. I saw a dozen or so on the shelves. Nobody wants it."
Zhou Mingxuan threw down the remaining cans: "It probably doesn't taste good."
"How bad can it be?" Song Qinglan picked up a jar, "Is there anyone who dislikes it at the end of the day?"
As soon as Tang Le entered the door, he saw a bottle of mineral water on the bookshelf. He drank it without saying a word. He was obviously thirsty: "There's something wrong with this place!"
Ji Yu looked at the bottle of water, but didn't say anything to stop it.
He also picked up a can and looked at it.
The green beans were painted on the can, and it was written "Kemon Bean", which looked no different from ordinary beans. Turning over to the back of the can, the ingredient list is all right, but the small print below the ingredient list draws attention during the monsoons. The line of squiggles is written in both Chinese and English: PU-31 Jinwu No. 2 is the first batch of organic vegetables after the launch, and high-quality products are offered.
From the early morning to almost noon, a group of young people, even if they were strong, were starving hard under the high-intensity battle.
Li Chun, who had already vomited with an empty stomach, didn't care whether the can was delicious or not. He pulled out his dagger and started to unpack the can. He continued, "There's something wrong with this place, it's wrong everywhere!"
Tang Le drank half the bottle of water in one breath: "I meant to say that I ran into a dog just now. But I don't know if it's dizziness."
Song Qinglan: "Dogs are also infected by zombies?"
Tang Le paused with embarrassment: "No, it seems to have two tails. Forget it, I didn't say it."
Everyone: "..."
"Bah—" Li Chun took a mouthful of Na Kemeng bean and spit it out immediately, "Damn, it's too bad to eat?!"
Zhou Mingxuan pushed him on the head: "It's good to eat it. I swallow it with my eyes closed. One year, Team Song and I participated in the rainforest survival. We ate insects and bark, and almost ate mud."
Li Chun opened a few and distributed them to everyone.
When he tasted it during the monsoon, the mouth was astringent and bitter, and the texture was strange, not like it had grown from the soil, but he swallowed it anyway.
Seeing that the most "delicate" in the company could eat during the monsoon season, Li Chun was embarrassed to complain again, and everyone started eating in silence.
Song Qinglan: "Are you full? Eat more if you're not full. I don't know what will happen next time. Maybe this will be the last meal."
Seven people have lost two.
No one thinks this is harsh, after all, it's a fact.
Song Qinglan is the backbone. He cold-bloodedly turned on the projection of the communicator, and said while enumerating in the air: "The problems we are facing now, one, zombies, two, black walls, no matter which one we encounter, we will die. We can kill zombies, black We can't judge the wall, and we don't know how it moves or why it exists."
Song Qinglan marked the current location of the black wall on the map.
They are still more than ten kilometers away. Even if they move over, it will take a while. The bookstore is temporarily safe.
"The rules of the task say, death is eliminated." Zhou Mingxuan guessed, "I guess the purpose of the black wall is to devour those zombies, not to eliminate us at all. We have to do the so-called task, there is no need to give us this rule, we It's not good for the above to die. The rule should be a reminder that this black wall can't distinguish between zombies and living people. Once we are touched by it, we will die, so we will inevitably be eliminated. "
Speaking of death elimination, everyone thinks of Tang Qi and Duan Wen.
With Tang Qi there, Tang Le was the one who was responsible for keeping the carefree, but at this time he grew a lot and connected the topic like nothing happened: "Old Zhou said it's possible. But how did the black wall get created? Come out? Could this time-space technology surpass us by so much?"
"I don't think it's right." Song Qinglan denied, "If there is such a great ability to create a black wall to eliminate zombies, why not just bomb it? The result is the same anyway, so why take a detour."
During the rainy season, he had the least amount of food and was the first to finish it. Enduring the bitterness in his mouth, he had already rummaged around on the bookshelf.
Seeing that everyone had finished eating, he came over with the book in his arms: "What if the one who sent us the mission wasn't the sky in our time and space?"
Everyone raised their heads.
Ji Yushi said, "I know what PU-31 means."
A book with an orange cover was thrown among the crowd, with a green planet painted on the cover and "Mini World: PU-31" written on the cover.
"PU, Parallel universe, parallel universe." Ji Yushi said, "Small planet number 31, with a diameter of 3696KM, is smaller than Mercury. It is an artificial colony in the cracks of parallel universes."
Since the invention of time travel, the time alliance formed by various countries has been extremely strict in controlling it.
But since this technology was invented, it means that from the day it was invented, the sky system exists in every future. There have been incidents in which the guardians who traveled through the future had communicator interference and heard the mission information of the current coordinate guardian under the same frequency band.
Everything has a cause and there must be an effect. Humans have invented technology that surpasses the times, and it is destined to be not completely controllable.
Therefore, the oath before each departure will be said so earnestly and solemnly.
——
"I am the witness of time, and I swear here."
"Never change the past!"
"Never talk about the present!"
"Never be obsessed with the future!"
Everyone is thoughtful.
Song Qinglan: "What do you mean when we jumped, we were intercepted by the sky of this time and space and sent to their colony?"
Ji Yushi said: "I think it's very possible. This can also explain why we were prompted to make an illegal jump, couldn't contact the command center, and even received the mission summary from the administrator's communicator."
"Snapped!"
Outside the window, several zombies could still see the living people in the bookstore because of their angle. They slapped the glass windows, their gray-white pupils bulged, but no one in the store paid any attention to them.
This news is more frightening than the siege of a thousand zombies.
"Fuck." Li Chun's heart tightened, his eyes showed panic, and his mouth was fragrant, "Then how do we go back? To complete the mission? If it was really the sky of this time and space that sent us here, the people in their command center wouldn't say people. How many words are written in this fucking mission summary? Say a few more words and you will die?!"
This angry rant just spoke to everyone's heart.
Zhou Mingxuan patted Li Chun on the shoulder: "Brother, you can talk more."
Song Qinglan pursed her lips. At this moment, the lingering aura on his body, like a blade, could not be ignored.
"Since you want to colonize this place called PU-31, it is very likely that there is no so-called command center in this time and space. The system... itself is just a mechanical code. You expect it to speak human words."
"Then Minister Wang, will they look for us?" Li Chun said, "The people in the command center must have noticed that we are gone too."
"It's not necessarily." Tang Le's eyes were a little lost, and his voice was very soft, "In parallel universe, maybe a second has passed for them, who knows. My brother and Lao Duan stay in this kind of place. now..."
There was silence in the bookstore.
Song Qinglan: "So, in the mission objective, what exactly is the Dark Chaser?"
He turned his head and said to Ji Yushi, "Consultant Ji, while you have time now, can you read two more books for research?"
Ji Yushi was quite cold: "I try my best. After all, I'm not a genius of quantum wave speed reading."
Everyone: "..."
Hold.
The words Song Qinglan said before departure was actually returned by Ji Yushi intact!
What time is it, this is too much to hold grudges! !
"and also."
Standing there during the rainy season, he gently pulled up his sleeves, revealing the marks on his wrists.
On the fair skin, there were several bruises and bruises, which looked like fingerprints, as if they had been abused.
During the monsoon season, he took his time and asked naturally, "Who can help me find books? My hand hurts."
Song Qinglan: "..."
Song Qinglan:"I'll come."
mist [unlimited]Chapter 13
As a colony, the PU-31 bookstore has a particularly diverse and all-encompassing collection of books of all ages and directions, old and new, and seems to have been collected from different places.
This time-space is far more accepting of parallel worlds than the time-space they are in. Judging from the number, there may be more than one colony similar to PU-31, but when Jiyu found that there were very few books covering this knowledge in the bookstore, it was possible to find The book "Mini World: PU-31" just now is still because of its conspicuous name. This shows that people are not new or valued in this aspect - of course, it does not rule out the possibility that those knowledge are stored in the cloud or network library.
However, fortunately, there are some gains.
Ji Yushi walked and read while walking, and asked Song Qinglan to help take down the books he needed.
During the rainy season, he wasn't bossy, and he didn't deliberately use the bruises on his wrists to bully others.
With such vengeance, don't know how to find a boyfriend.
Song Qinglan looked at Ji Yu's profile and angle. When she saw Ji Yu, she was focused and serious, like a small fan with eyelashes.
Maybe because it looks good.
Even if the sexual orientation is different, the aesthetics should be similar to the way they look at girls.
After a while, both of them held a high stack of books.
"Hurry up." Song Qinglan threw the book on the floor, "Pick up useful information and read it."
"I know." Ji Yushi said without looking up.
The sun is shining outside the bookstore, and the light is very good.
The sun shines into the bookstore and casts a golden patch, but no one feels the brilliance because of it.
Far away in the sky, there is a dormant black line.
Nearby, the zombies lying on the glass scratched "hoho".
"Pfft", a zombie was squeezed hard, a cloudy eyeball burst open on the glass, and the thick liquid slid down the glass.
Song Qinglan had a good tolerance, but she felt a little disgusting.
When they turned around, the three were looking at them with intriguing expressions, as if they were thinking about what happened after they were separated just now?
Song Qinglan squinted her black eyes, and the three of them immediately rushed up and divided the book.
"I'll take a look too!"
"Come here to help."
"Look for place names, characters, and anything related to darkness!"
Zhou Mingxuan opened a book and felt dizzy after just one glance. He stood up with a gun and said, "What, someone has to work shifts, I'll go to the second floor to keep an eye on it."
Li Chun: "Lao Zhou put it down and let me go!"
Tang Le pulled Li Chun back, he was not in the mood to play tricks, and his expression was very serious: "Look for it, in case you can find something useful."
Li Chun sat down obediently.
Song Qinglan thought for a while about what they had just discussed.
He went back to the counter of the bookstore and found the bookstore communicator that he hadn't found before.
If their wild conjecture is going in the right direction, then in the absence of a command center or even the need to hijack guardians of other time and space to get help, is the Vault of Heaven system itself controlling it? Task?
Song Qinglan had no conclusion.
This communicator is the same as the park management office's communicator, and it prompts several pieces of the same information.
[Welcome, guardian from Xingyuan 1456, welcome to PU-31. ]
[This transition has been locked and will be unlocked after the mission is successful. ]
[Mission Mode: Ouroboros. ]
[Task rules: death elimination. ]
[Quest objective: Dark Chaser. ]
Without a network, this information is sent one-way.
An idea flashed through Song Qinglan's mind, but out of the corner of his eye, he happened to spot a small square medicine box at the foot of the book.
He bent down and picked it up. The medicine box was clean and without any markings.
It is the monsoon season.
Hyperamnesia...
Song Qinglan looked at the teammates in the center of the bookstore.
Of the three, only one did not feel inconsistent with the bookstore environment during the monsoon.
Of course, it is impossible to forget this medicine box during the rainy season, but now I am busy looking for clues, and temporarily put the lost medicine box aside. Song Qinglan put the medicine box in her pocket, not wanting to disturb the other party's thoughts.
Unfortunately, there is no information related to "Dark Chaser" and "Black Wall" in the bookstore.
During the monsoon, he discovered a number of artificial cultivation projects used by PU-31, including but not limited to artificial soil, artificial water, etc. He flipped through a book: "The History of the Development of the PU Thermonuclear Fusion Experimental Reactor Program? Is it about energy sustainability?"
"What?" Li Chun was stunned.
"It's about energy," Ji Yushi said. "It mainly uses hydrogen and deuterium, and uses controllable devices to carry out nuclear fusion to release energy, which can be used for electricity and heat."
Everyone: "..."
Ji Yushi said: "That is to say, maybe the main energy of this colony comes from this kind of energy. Our era is also doing this research, but it is not as well developed as this era."
It doesn't have anything to do with the answers they're looking for.
Therefore, the book was put down during the rainy season.
After this conversation was interrupted, Song Qinglan picked up the half bottle of water on the bookshelf and handed it over, and wanted to give him the medicine box in her hand.
In the season of rain, there is a hint of cyan at the moment: "No need, thank you."
The bitter taste of beans still remained in his mouth, but he didn't want to touch this bottle of water.
Song Qinglan understood that this person still has a habit of cleanliness.
At this moment, when Ji Yushi looked out of the window, the expression on his face suddenly froze.
Everyone followed his gaze.
I saw a new wave of zombies gathered outside the floor-to-ceiling windows of the bookstore, layer by layer.
In the last row, there is a tallest zombie.
He was wearing a black combat uniform, with a large blood hole on his neck, exposed arteries and blood vessels, gray pupils, and a face exactly like Tang Le's.
"elder brother!!!"
Tang Le's eyes were blood red, and he shouted and got up and rushed over.
Everyone was shocked. This place was less than 20 kilometers away from the convenience store. They couldn't imagine how the sudden change of Tang Qi came here.
through a layer of glass.
Tang Le's tears were meandering. On the other end, Tang Qi opened his mouth numbly to reveal rotten gums. Facing the moving human, he was so excited that he wanted to tear him to pieces immediately.
"Ho! Ho!"
Zombies riot.
The bright light in the room suddenly turned black, and almost at the same time, Zhou Mingxuan's irritable voice came: "Come on! The black wall is coming!!!"
Everyone's heart sank suddenly.
Zhou Mingxuan has already rushed downstairs: "The second floor can see clearly!! I've been staring at it, it's just an instant! The speed is still accelerating!!"
Everyone looked at it, and the black wall that was far in the sky moved in the blink of an eye, as if it was coming to the front.
It quietly moved to a distance of only four or five kilometers outside the bookstore in the blink of an eye, and was flooding the city at an unimaginable and visible speed!
The black wall that covers the sky is like a cosmic black hole, everything that comes into contact with it disappears, and is submerged into the endless darkness. What is even more creepy is that the countless zombies in front of the black wall, the zombies scattered everywhere, seem to be naturally afraid of the power of darkness, and gather into a dense zombie tide rushing towards the light, and you can almost see the zombie tide. Dust and heat from running!
Tang Le was still standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows.
Zhou Mingxuan shouted, "Fuck!! Hurry up!"
Tang Le woke up like a dream.
The car stopped outside the bookstore, Song Qinglan grabbed Shenmian and walked out: "Everyone get in the car! Li Chun! Don't fucking pick it up!"
Under Li Chun's feet, the canned bones rolled to the ground.
The gunshots kept going, "Ho-ho" The zombies in the vicinity were attracted, and they all rushed over.
"boarding!!!"
"Hurry up!!"
The light in the bookstore dimmed again.
The dull sound of "Rumble" was the corpse tide that was chased by the black wall and fled in their direction.
While the corpse tide was engulfed by the black wall, new zombies gathered at the same time, and the sound was like bursts of muffled thunder, indicating the end of the day.
At this critical moment, he seemed to be guided. When Ji Yushi saw a book that had been knocked down in a panic in front of the bookshelf at the door, Song Qinglan had already grabbed his shoulder.
He turned his head abruptly, and in Song Qinglan's eyes he saw the anger he had never seen before: "Let's go!!"
Follow Song Qinglan to rush out of the bookstore, lift a gun to kill a zombie in Jiyu, and follow his teammates out in the bloody road!
"Bang bang bang bang!!!"
In the environment that quickly darkened, the gunfire was bright, and the sky was split in an instant, and the darkness was overwhelming.
The corpse is coming.
"what!!!"
In the darkness, don't know who's screaming came, but the zombies can't see anything clearly.
The car was blocked by the corpse tide. At the last second, Tang Le killed the zombies stuck in the car door and closed the car door. "Boom" The engine suddenly started, and he barely rushed out with powerful horsepower.
The zombies in front were knocked into the air, the windshield was blocked by rotten flesh and blood, and the wipers barely scraped. Zhou Mingxuan drove the car onto the road by feeling.
The darkness chased after him, and the scattered zombies behind him were swallowed up in the blink of an eye.
"Ho-"
In the back seat, Li Chun opened his mouth to bite.
In just a few seconds, there was a piece of flesh missing from his face, his skin was covered with cyan mesh veins, his pupils had completely turned gray, he had mutated!
Zhou Mingxuan saw this scene from the rearview mirror, the car suddenly lost control and almost hit Li Chun during the monsoon season!
Tang Le's voice changed: "Pure!"
The two held Li Chun down, the teammates' former voices and smiles were still in front of them, but they had become monsters who did not recognize their six relatives. How could Tang Le succeed!
The diamond bird in Ji Yushi's hand trembled involuntarily, only to hear Song Qinglan yelling in front of him: "Do it!!"
He closed his eyes.
"boom!"
The back seat was quiet again, and no one could see Li Chun in the dark.
The car rushed out a hundred meters in the blink of an eye, and suddenly there was a loud noise, and it rushed into the barbed wire in front of it, the windshield was all shattered, the car rolled over, and crashed to the ground for a distance of more than ten meters, completely shutting down!
The eardrums of everyone in the car tingled.
Zhou Mingxuan's head drooped, and his neck was bent at an incredible angle.
"Get out of the car!" Song Qinglan's voice was painful, almost roaring through gritted teeth, then she unbuckled her seat belt and fell to the ground, kicking open the car door.
After the car rolled over, the rear door was deformed.
Ji Yushi, Li Chun's body, and Tang Le were huddled together, Tang Le said, "Team Song!!"
Ji Yu experienced severe pain in his legs and his face was pale: "I can't open the car door!!"
Song Qinglan grabbed the edge of the broken car window, the glass shards plunged into his palm, and blood dripped on Ji Yushi's face, but he seemed unaware of the pain, so he gritted his teeth and forcefully removed the car door!
"Bang——" The car door was thrown open.
Song Qinglan stretched out her hand and Ji Yushi held it.
Hands clasped.
One was fair, the other was dripping with blood.
That big palm is tough and powerful, it belongs to the captain's responsibility, and it belongs to the friendship of the teammates.
Was pulled out of the carriage during the monsoon.
Next, Song Qinglan pulled out Tang Le.
The time was too late, the time was too fast, Tang Le landed in the first second, and the black wall was only a dozen meters away in the next second.
At that moment, everyone felt hopeless. They didn't care if there were zombies in front of them. They took out all the strength of their life and ran wildly. There was only one thought in their minds - run.
Ji Yushi felt that he had never run so fast in his life.
So fast that forgot about the pain in legs.
The wind rang in his ears, and the teammates beside him were the same as him, trying their best to survive in this time and space like him.
After running a few dozen meters away, a bad feeling arose in Ji Yushi's heart, and he turned back with Song Qinglan.
"Tangle!!"
Tang Le stopped.
He stood on the spot, a zombie was biting his neck, and blood flowed from his young body in an instant.
Tang Le moved his lips and said slowly, "Consultant Ji... We can't go back—"
This sentence is not finished.
Behind, darkness has arrived.
To drown this world, together with their survivors.
